We just returned from St. Lucia after celebrating our 25th Anniversary on the island. We spent the first four nights at Sandals Halcyon; the final three nights at Ladera. For us, it was the perfect combination. Sandals provided an easy walk to the beach, lots of activities, partying and food. We then rented a car and drove from Castries, through... more

Amazing place, amazing views - but found the novelty wore off after a while, whilst you have the option to shuttle to the beaches etc it did feel slightly isolated. We stayed here for a 3 days and then moved to the jalousie plantation for 5 days (which is down on the beach) And to be quite honest, we are... more

My wife and I spent 5 days at Ladera for our wedding anniversary. We prefer to stay in small luxury boutique hotels rather than large resorts and Ladera was recommended to us by a travel agent. Upon landing in Vieux Fort, we immediately experienced a scam after clearing customs. A person asked us where we were staying and when we... more

Wow, is all I can say of this amazing hideaway. It was our honeymoon and we wanted something out of this world and feel like we got it. first of all, the view is astonishing. We did not want to leave our room we just stared and stared at the most picturesque view I had seen in my life. absolutely... more

My husband and I spent our week long honeymoon at Ladera in 2006! We couldn't have been happier with the location, the resort, the staff, the food....I could keep going! I would recommend this to anyone for either a very romantic getaway or a honeymoon. I've been ready to go back since the day I had to leave!! The rooms... more

We'd read the hype and wanted to check it out. We spend 2 weeks every year in the caribbean, and have done for the last 10 years, last Christmas (2006) we did the same at Ladera. The location is splendid, the views can't be faulted and the concept is great. BUT, camping for adults it is! Many creepy crawlies and... more

We recently stayed at Ladera for six days. We had looked forward to our trip to Ladera for some time, having read Travel and Leisure, the New York Times and other magazines that lauded the hotel, not to mention Ladera’s own marketing material. Unfortunately, our experience fell far short of our expectations, and Ladera’s own advertising. We were most shocked... more

Ladera is dream! The unbelievable, jaw dropping beauty of the hotel and the rooms is undeniable. What is even more incredible is that the experience doesn't stop there - no stone is left unturned - from food, drinks, service, spa treatments, activities, even gift shop - everything is nothing less than stellar! My husband and I rented the entire property... more

We booked for four days but cut our stay short by one day. The views are beautiful, the room is unique but not very luxurious for the price. The food at the hotel is below average despite the hype and it is easily $100 a meal. It costs $100 each way to take a taxi to anywhere so you are... more
